Clippers physician Steven Shimoyama, an orthopedic surgeon, and the assistant to the Clippers' lead physician, Tony Daly, said in all likelihood Livingston will miss the remainder of the season with what is to believed extensive knee damage.

Shimoyama immediately went onto the court and performed a procedure to pop Livingston's knee back into place.

"It alleviated nearly all of his pain. I'd say he was in terrible pain when (injury) happened," said Shimoyama, who added that the type of injury that Livingston suffered happens more frequently to football players.

I am somewhat qualified to answer this question, and I highly doubt that he plays before the 2008 All-Star break, if it all next season.

However, with today's medical technology and rehab, his career is certainly not over. Carson Palmer had a similar injury and he came back in 9 months, albeit at a position less reliant on speed an agility.

I wouldn't say that it's out of the question that Shaun never has the same physical talent.

but now, what the hell is going on in the clipper locker room? Doug Christie asks to be let go? The dude has a 10 day contract. This is dunlevy. The problem with the clips isn't lack of talent and it aint xs and os..it's something in the locker room, it's tone. it's maggs vs. baldy. But is that it? what is really going on in there that's destroying this team a game and a player at a time...and is it the coach's responsiblity?
